Chapter 97 Bones
Liki had a ponytail and a long sword on her waist.
She had always wanted to learn swordsmanship from Kalim, but Kalim used a giant sword, which was not suitable for her.
Although the task was boring, she still performed her duties faithfully, walking back and forth beside the iron cage, and occasionally looking at Yves's condition.
This was a task assigned by Kalim, and she must complete it satisfactorily. She didn't want to leave any bad impression in Kalim's mind.
The clouds were thick tonight, and the moon was blocked by the clouds, making this night darker.
"Water..." Yves suddenly said a word weakly.
Liqi immediately turned to look at him and asked, "What?"
"Water... Give me some water, I feel like I'm going to die." Yves said weakly, out of breath, feeling like he would die at any time.
Li Qi refused: "No, you can only drink water once a day, you have already drunk it today."
Yves begged: "Please, I am getting weaker and weaker these days, and drinking water once a day is no longer possible. I know my body best, cough... cough..., give me some water, I am really going to... die..."
He spoke intermittently, exhaling more than inhaling, and it seemed that he was really dying.
Li Qi hesitated for a moment: "Kalim wants him to live and personally send him to the gallows.₆₉ₛₕᵤₓ.cₒₘIf he dies now, Kalim will definitely be unhappy. It's just a little water..."
"Then I'll pour you some." She remembered that the bucket was not far away, and usually everyone would go to scoop a spoonful of water when they wanted to drink water.
Li Qi walked over in a few steps, scooped a spoonful of water with a spoon, and carried it steadily to the side of the iron cage.
The iron cage was very short on the ground. Li Qi took a spoon and placed it on top of the iron cage, saying, "Open your mouth."
"Thank you..."
Yivis whispered, then slowly opened his mouth.
Li Qi began to tilt the spoon in her hand, and water began to drip.
Suddenly, a tiny black shadow flashed by.
Li Qi's eyes widened, her beautiful eyes widened, and then she fell forward and fell on the iron cage.
A blood hole appeared on her forehead, and another blood hole appeared behind her head, and bright red blood flowed out.
Yivis glanced at the corpse indifferently, looked around, and then stretched out his deformed left hand with difficulty, and used his fingers to hook the key on Li Qi's waist with difficulty. The key to the iron cage was in the key.
He had always hidden a tiny bone fragment in his mouth.
Yivis usually ate the same food as the slaves, which was from the swill bucket.
There were many kinds of food mixed in the swill bucket, and he once ate a small bone fragment.
After he ate the bone, he immediately hid it under his tongue as if nothing had happened.
The guards who were watching him would not come to check his mouth for no reason, so this bone had been hidden for more than 20 days and was an important prop for his escape.
When Li Qi approached to pour water, the moment he opened his mouth, he used all his strength to shoot the bone out and shot through Li Qi's head.
With the experience of repeatedly having his hands and feet disabled during this period, he deliberately concealed the recovery progress of his left hand. Anyway, if it was slower than before by one or two days, no one would notice it, and they would only think that the recovery was getting slower and slower due to long-term injuries.
Although he was disabled and seriously injured, he was still a great knight.
He could not kill people with his hands and feet, but he still had a mouth and a chest that could be used.
To deal with Li Qi, who was not even a knight, he only needed the parts above the neck to move.
It was when he shot through Li Qi's head that Herag discovered the movement here through the deep blue.
Ives stretched his hand out of the cage with difficulty and hooked the key with difficulty.
He pressed his whole body against the cage, just to make his arm reach out a little further.
When he was about to hook the key with his fingers, the key was hooked away by a hand that suddenly appeared.
Ives looked up dumbfounded and saw Herag looking at him with a smile on his face.
"Give it to me... please..." Ives really begged this time.
Herag smiled and said, "It seems that you really want to get out. You are so focused that you didn't even notice that I walked up to you."
"Please..." Ives begged in a low voice.
He didn't dare to speak loudly. If he alarmed others, he would have no hope of escaping.
Herag spread his hands: "Sorry, I won't get involved in your affairs. I came to stop you from escaping, just to prevent you from running away and delaying our journey."
He didn't care whether Ives was dead or alive, and it had nothing to do with him whether he escaped or not.
The main thing is that if Ives ran away, Kalim would definitely try to catch Ives when he saw the dead Lizzie, and the caravan's journey would definitely be affected.
If Herag went alone, it would take another half a month, and preparing supplies would be troublesome.
In order to save himself some trouble and not affect the journey, he decisively stopped Ives's escape.
"Kalim, your captive is about to escape, and you are still sleeping?" Herag's voice was not loud, but it was particularly obvious in the quiet night.
Many carriages around immediately lit up their lights, and some people got off the carriages with lights in their disheveled and sleepy eyes to check the situation.
Kalim hurried over and saw Li Qi lying on the iron cage. He glared at her: "Li Qi!"
He rushed over and picked up Li Qi's body. After looking at the wound on her head, his heart suddenly turned cold, knowing that she was dead.
"Who did it!" Kalim roared angrily.
He always regarded Li Qi as his sister. In his heart, Li Qi was always a simple and lovely girl, and he took care of Li Qi in many ways.
Now that Li Qi died tragically, Kalim was extremely angry and sad.
Yavis quickly climbed to the other side of the cage, not daring to look at Kalim at all.
"You did it?" Kalim noticed Yavis's movements in the cage, so he roared.
At this time, almost all the people in the caravan woke up, and many people came over. Many ladies covered their mouths in surprise after seeing Li Qi's body in Kalim's arms.
Yavis shook his head in panic: "No... No..."
"Yavis killed her. The murder weapon should be a bone-like thing hidden in her mouth." Herag said on the side.
Karim looked at the wound again, then at the spoon and water stains on the ground, and combined with the information Herag said, he instantly restored the whole incident.
"Yvis!" He roared, put Liqi's body aside, then violently tore the iron cage apart, grabbed Yvis out of it, and held it in his hand like a chicken.
